Like it or not, without Tan, we would not have achieved what he have just achieved!

Thank you Mr Tan for:

A) Keeping the club going
B) Providing money to build a premiership team
C) Your personal time and investment into the club


You will, eventually, go down in Club History as the man who simultaneously saved and made the club.

Thank you so much.

Tan deserves a huge amount of credit! 3007651330 Tan deserves a huge amount of credit! 3007651330

Tan came across well on his interview, saying he would spend time strategising about how to keep Cardiff in the Prem "for a long time". I liked his statement "lucky red" though...a 'one in the eye' gesture to those who complained eh!

"Hopefully we won't need to spend too much."

Mmmhhh....how much is too much to a billionaire though?

Well £25million-£50million was bandied around.

He's a very clever, canny businessman. The sensible thing to do is exactly what he has said, play down your finances then teams won't ask the earth. That way even though in reality Malky has probably got a lot of money to spend, teams won't know that and the players will be cheaper. Clever Tan.

It's impossible to know where we'd be without him but I doubt it would be right where we are now.

Felt sorry for him when he did the rounds tonight. There was an air of hostility around it. I felt that he deserved a hell of a lot more noise than he got.

It was mentioned a month or two ago, I think, but by Premiership standards it's not that much when you factor in wages.

I like this though:

"Others have spent a big amount of money and don't do well, so we will try to spend smartly."
